The mission of the Fund for Trans Generations (FTG) is to invest in trans-led organizing to support a future where transgender, gender non-conforming, and nonbinary people live with freedom, safety, and self-determination. It aims to provide significant resources to emerging trans-led groups with limited access to national funding streams, growing with organizations to increase their capacity and leadership development, addressing the needs of transgender, gender non-conforming, and nonbinary communities.
The Disability Inclusion Fund at Borealis Philanthropy is open for applications, targeting organizations that champion disability inclusion, rights, and justice. This funding opportunity aims to support and amplify the efforts of groups working in these critical areas to foster a more inclusive and equitable society.
The Disability Inclusion Fund gives preference to funding applicants that adhere to the following guidelines: The fund is particularly interested in supporting organizations led by individuals with disabilities, with a special focus on those led by members of the Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC), queer, gender non-conforming communities, and women. An organization is considered disability-led if the majority of its leadership roles, such as advisory committees or governing boards, are filled by people with disabilities. The fund is dedicated to projects that intersect with other social justice movements, encompassing racial justice, environmental sustainability, immigrant rights, workers' rights, among other initiatives aimed at creating a fairer society. It values efforts that foster connections between various groups, leaders, movements, and communities to enhance partnerships, coalitions, and collaborative projects. Additionally, the fund supports endeavors that promote the visibility and representation of people with disabilities in arts, media, education, and popular culture. Priority is also given to projects advancing the principles of disability inclusion and justice, through means such as community organizing, advocacy, and policy development.
